Wild royal kombu bucket 330g ALGAÉ GASTRONOMIE
022005
The glutamic acid present in Kombu speeds up cooking times for dried vegetables and grains, giving the water a briny flavour. It also alkalinizes dishes and neutralises the acidity of tomato sauces, for example. Kombu can help prevent stress, hypertension, constipation and tumour development. It is rich in proteins (14% by dry weight) and minerals, as well as calcium (with 8 times the amount found in milk), magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, sodium, iron (with 5 times the amount found in spinach), bromine and zinc. Brown in colour with a fleshy, crunchy texture, kombu has a salty, smoky flavour. Once rinsed for 10 seconds, Kombu Royal is perfect for cooking en papillote or for making canapé parcels. Its slightly sweet flavour brings a touch of caramelisation to the cooking process.
THE FINEST EDIBLE SEASWEEDS COMBINED WITH CUTTING-EDGE CULINARY INNOVATION TO GUARANTEE INCREDIBLE FLAVOUR
The Algaé Gastronomie brand has 3 areas of operations: an edible seaweed preparation facility in Concarneau and two workshops dedicated to pasta and “creative cuisine” (better known as molecular gastronomy) in Rosporden, in the south Finistère region. Overseeing this broad spectrum of culinary innovation, Christine Le Tennier helps us discover the aromatic richness, variety and amazing versatility of these marine vegetables. Though western cultures have only begun eating seaweed in recent decades, in Asia these plants have been consumed since the dawn of time.See all products in this range
